Subject: RE: Great post on item balancing (Long)


Strangely enough I've never heard someone talking about how great their
class gets AFTER level 35. It seems that every class has major gripes and
what REALLY is wrong is level 35 and up? Besides, don't forget Selo. I
just traded for my MM drums and I'm FLYING. I would imagine the twisting
some magic resist songs will never become useless, and I planning on
twisting heal and mana when I hit 32...

On another note, my brother's first encounter with the Predator yielded an
obsidian shard which I thoroughly enjoyed for days... then some darn level
50 shaman gave me an offer for it I couldn't refuse: an obsidian scimitar,
an obsidian hoop, a chipped bone bracelet, a +4 wis +4 dex? veil, and 200
plat. I immediately turned around and traded the obsidian hoop to another
level 50 for azure sleeves and gave the veil, sleeves, and bracelet to my
brother's druid. The scimitar is decent, but I miss my shard! I never saw
any stamina loss when I was duel wielding my dragoon dirk and the shard.
I've been trying to camp the predator now for the last 3 nights and haven't
seen anything but place holder spawns. Anyone have advice on how to get the
predator to spawn?
